In the preview of the match where FC Porto hosts Arouca this Friday, for the 24th round of the championship, Farioli commented on the medical report. The game will be broadcast LIVE by Maisfutebol at 18:45.

«Thiago [Silva] will not be in the game. He is still working, as is Martim [Fernandes], with interesting statistics that give us hope for a return soon. Kiwior has done everything with the team in recent days and is fully recovered, potentially in the starting eleven or as a substitute.»

Physical issues in the defensive line

«While they were in treatment, I even laughed because those four [Thiago, Martim, Kiwior, and Nehuén] would make a great defensive quartet. What the team is doing is very good, covering these injuries. These are unfortunate injuries because they come from contact.»

Samu back at Olival

«It was good to have him with us, not just on video calls. It's sad to see his look on the bike. A player of his level… what's good is that he brings his smile and energy to the team. The team's unity has been one of the keys.»
